I. All self-luminous bodies in the celestial spaces are composed of meteorites, or masses of meteoritic vapour produced by heat brought about by condensation of meteor-swarms due to gravity. II. The spectra of all bodies depend upon the heat of the meteorites,... Advanced Physiography - Page 300by John Thornton (M.A.) - 1890 - 342 pagesFull view - About this book
